The people around him were all amazed and silently recited his words, thinking that this guy looked like a roughneck, but he could actually say such cultured things and flatter so elegantly. They had really underestimated him before.
Bi Linglong's pretty face flushed slightly. This guy wasn't talking about the Emperor, but rather about her...
Thinking of this, her heart pounded wildly. Fearing that she would be exposed in front of so many people, she nodded slightly and hurriedly left.
A group of officials then came to congratulate Zuan on his promotion to earl, and Zuan casually dealt with them.
He quickly excused himself by saying he was tired and went back to his room to rest.
Many of them had participated in the impeachment before, so they were naturally a little embarrassed and took the opportunity to resign.
Sang Hong found an opportunity to come to Zu An's room: "Ah Zu, I have been in politics for decades, and I have never felt such highs and lows as I have today."
"I was too impulsive and made Uncle worry." Zu An bowed and apologized. During his absence, he had left behind a complete mess, and it was all his efforts to fix it.
Sang Hong opened his mouth, but in the end gave up: "Never mind, at least the ending is good. But what I'm more worried about now is something else, which is why the Emperor dislikes you?"
Zuan understood why he said that, because all the signs today indicated that the emperor was indeed going to deal with him.
He was equally curious; could it be that the secret realm had been exposed?
But that doesn't make sense.
"Perhaps he's been too ruthless towards King Qi lately and is planning to sacrifice me to quell the backlash from King Qi's group. Plus, there's the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra incident before, so there's always a thorn in his side." Zu'an couldn't easily explain the events in the secret realm to him, so he could only tell him this.
"That's most likely the case." Sang Hong nodded, then his expression suddenly became extremely strange. "By the way, why did Abbot Yan speak up for you? You two wouldn't... be having an affair, would you?"
"Pfft..." Zu An was drinking tea and almost spat it all out. "Uncle, don't make wild guesses. I'm fine with it, but Master Yan is very concerned about his reputation."
Sang Hong was about to say something when he suddenly looked at me strangely and said, "Ahem, you must be exhausted from your journey. Get some rest. I'll be going now."
After saying that, he fled as if he were running away.
Zu An was curious, but when he saw Yan Xuehen standing at the door with a frosty expression, he instantly understood: "Haha, what a coincidence."

I'm so sorry, I was completely drunk last night, threw up and felt dizzy, and when I opened my eyes it was already this late, I didn't even have time to update.
